Kauffman Center for Performing Arts
The Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts is a performing arts center located in downtown Kansas City, Missouri. It is a nonprofit organization that opened in 2011. You can find two main venues inside the building. The Muriel Kauffman Theatre has 1,800 seats and is the home of the Lyric Opera of Kansas City and the Kansas City Ballet. For those who prefer orchestral music, the Helzberg Hall has 1,600 seats and is the home of the Kansas City Symphony Orchestra. The entire complex was designed by architect Moshe Safdie. I've noticed the building looks quite different depending on which street you approach it from, and it is a great spot to watch the crowds gather before a big show.
